Dairy-Free Dragon Fruit Banana Smoothie

I am a chef who loves to cook, write recipes, and grow my own ingredients.

Dragon fruit is a tasty and commonly available fruit in the Philippines, where I live. It's no surprise then that it is a popular ingredient in smoothies, desserts, and other local treats. Let me show a simple recipe for a dairy-free dragon fruit banana smoothie that you can make at home.

Ingredients

• 1 cup dragon fruit, chopped
• 1 cup banana, chopped
• 1 cup mineral water

Utensils

• measuring cups
• knife
• chopping board
• blender

Cook Time

Instructions

1. Peel and chop the banana and dragon fruit. Set aside.
2. In a blender, add first the water and then the chopped fruits. Blend until smooth.

Tips and Techniques

• Freeze the chopped banana and dragon fruit before blending to achieve a thicker and colder smoothie.
• Adding the water first makes blending easier.
• Adjust the amount of water to produce a thicker or thinner texture.
• If you'd like to make your smoothie sweeter, add honey for a healthier option over sugar.
• To make it creamier, add a dairy-free milk such as almond milk, oat milk, rice milk, etc.
